Now this is a gap in the market no one had seen before. Plucky¹ Japanese start-up Real-f offers you the chance to 'see yourself' as never before.

日本新兴企业Real-f公司日前研发出仿真人脸面具，大胆地填补了这一市场空白。拥有了自己的“第二张脸”，你会发现从未如此清晰地“看过自己”。

Plucky Japanese start-up Real-f offers you the chance to 'see yourself' as never before.
For £2,500 (yes, really) - or $3,920 - the company takes digital stills of your face, then moulds them over a 3D model to create a hard vinyl chloride（氯乙烯） 'face'.

The resulting model is called a 3DPF - 3 Dimensional Photo Form. If a face isn't quite enough, then you can opt² for a full head and shoulders.

The company describes its process as a 'human photocopier³'.

Oddly, it's not the first start-up to offer human face masks featuring your own face - but it's by far the most realistic.

Real-f claims you can discern（识别，领悟） individual bloodvessels and irises⁴ in the models.

'We have progressed from monochrome（单色） to colour, now is the era of the 3D stereoscopic effect,' it says.

The one thing Real-f fails to address is what the point of it all might be - except to suggest that you could put the 'head' model (about twice the price of a mask) on top of a mannequin（人体模型） .

Whatever you use them for, expect to wait two weeks for delivery.
